[VERSE 1]
A Bm E A
These days my life seems somehow like a tired old cliché
Bm E A
B bad movie scene that just goes on and on
Bm E A
With dialogue like " It's so sad how fast time slips away"
Bm E A
Or "You never really miss them until they're gone"
Bm E A
Funny how those old clichés come true
Bm D E
I never thought I'd miss him, but I do
[CHORUS]
A Bm A Bm E
My father died in summer, and all he left behind
A Bm A C#m Bm E
Were little scraps of paper, little scraps of rhyme
Bm E A
I read them and felt something inside me break
C#m Bm E
And angrily cried out "Too late, too late!"
A C#m Bm E
Surely there must be something better?
A C#m Bm E
Surely there must be something better?
[VERSE 2]
A Bm E A
He and I were always strangers, searching for someone
Bm E A
I was looking for a hero, and he a friend
Bm E A
So while I searched for my father, he was looking for his son
Bm E A
And strangers we remained until the end
Bm E A
But the man who wrote his heart into these rhymes
Bm D E
I know that he could have been a good friend of mine
[CHORUS]
A Bm A Bm E
My father died in summer, and all he left behind
A Bm A C#m Bm E
Were little scraps of paper, little scraps of rhyme
Bm E A
I read them and felt something inside me break
C#m Bm E
And angrily cried out "Too late, too late!"

Surely there must be something better?
A C#m Bm E

[VERSE 3]
A Bm E A
So I sit here where he lived and died as the ghosts around me weave
Bm E A
And the evening shadows lengthen on the wall
Bm E A
And in this dark and empty room it's easy to believe
Bm E A
That he never, really lived at all
Bm E A
But the little scraps of paper in my hand
Bm D E
Prove he lived to me — a father and a man
[CHORUS]
A Bm A Bm E
My father died in summer, and all he left behind
A Bm A C#m Bm E
Were little scraps of paper, little scraps of rhyme
Bm E A
I read them and felt something inside me break
C#m Bm E
And angrily cried out "Too late, too late!"
A C#m Bm E
Surely there must be something better?
A C#m Bm E
Surely there must be something better?
